I understand, you’re a fan and you bought your ticket which in my opinion gives you the right to boo or cheer as loud as you want. In his 26 minutes, the Thunder outscored the Lakers by 45 points.

They’re also dealing with booby-trapped buildings and streets, along with fighting on the outside of the city’s center. Steve Warren, a US military spokesman in Baghdad, told AP that “today’s success is a proud moment for Iraq”.

Hours before OKC demolished the Lakers in Oklahoma on Saturday, Bryant and Durant had a meal together in a local restaurant.

Chen said President Ma Ying-jeou has been deeply concerned about the issue since he served as justice minister 20 years ago. The foundation estimates that at least 2,000 Taiwanese women could have been forced to be comfort women.
And to think Bryant’s final road game will be April 11 at Oklahoma City, assuming he’s still standing.
Bryant has no illusions about what he’s dealing with at this stage. TNT will televise the All-Star Game in the US for the 14th consecutive year, marking Turner Sports’ 31st year of NBA All-Star coverage. “Gary Payton, Anfernee – I mean it was a lot of – so the top five players is a little tough for me”.
Bryant, who announced last month that the 2015-16 campaign will be his final season, is the all-time highest NBA All-Star scorer with 280 points.
The Lakers are still too raw.
Bryant went back and forth with Durant. For season ticket purposes, the Lakers are the home team.
Bryant has scored a total of 383 points on Christmas, an National Basketball Association record.
Kobe Bryant’s turnaround was unstoppable, just like it was years ago.
In voting for three spots in the West front-court starting lineup, Bryant sets the pace followed by Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant on 349,473 and the Clippers’ Blake Griffin on 182,107.
As impressive as that may sound, it is incredibly sad.
“Listen, you have to be realistic about what we’re facing and where we are right now as a team and as an organization”, Bryant said after the Lakers’ record dropped to 5-24 with the 120-85 loss to the Thunder.
Jordan Clarkson was the only other Lakers starter to score in double figures (10 points).
Durant, who is now averaging 27.2 points, 7.6 rebounds and 4.3 assists while shooting 52.7 percent from the field, has never hidden his admiration for Bryant.
He pump-faked in the second quarter, got Westbrook to bite and converted a three-point play after hitting from the left side as Westbrook made contact. The Lakers actually managed a 19-2 of their own and eventually took the lead as Durant and Russell Westbrook sat midway through the second quarter. But the Thunder went on a 40-4 run to humiliate the Lakers and turn a competitive game into a laugher.
Bryant kept hammering away at the Nuggets’ players in the post, found the Lakers’ big men for three key assists in the second half and played exemplary defense against a reserve named Will Barton.
Bryant missed the team’s last two Christmas Day games, against the Heat and the Bulls, with injuries.
